I was asked to put together a package for Beyoncé with a personal letter, photos, and videos. I was like ‘Dear Ms. Knowles…’ I was excited to tell my story and grateful for the opportunity that someone like her would listen to what I had to say; care about what I was experiencing,” Sophie says. “I think she saw in me more than just an Upper East Side girl who wants to be a singer. She could tell I had gone through some things and that deep down I have a soul.” Check out her EP below:
